"Remember, don't reveal your identity."

"Childe, don't worry," the second stunned man took a few steps back after speaking, got on his horse and left. Gongzi Qi stood in place and looked at the figure of the two stunned people in the distance, and then turned to leave.

Before a carriage arrived at the gate of Gongzi Qi's mansion, it was a guard in the palace who drove the carriage and slowly stopped. Su Wu led some armor soldiers to kneel in front of the carriage to greet them, a pair of delicate hands lifted the curtain and slowly stretched out, and the guards dismounted and helped Princess Ling out of the disembarkation station and looked around in the same place, looking at how majestic and tall the stone lion in front of the gate of this mansion was, standing behind him and closely following the older palace maid Xiaoqian. Princess Ling stepped forward to help Su Wu and said, "Why don't you see your son?" ”

"When Childe goes out to run errands, the last general will immediately go to pass the word." Su Wu stood up and looked at Princess Ling in front of him, and said very respectfully. I think back then, this Su Wu was a relatively irritable person, he spoke straightforwardly, and since he followed Gongzi Qi, he has become so polite, and he has spoken slowly and so deeply, he is really like someone.

"No need, I'll wait for him to come back in his room," After finishing speaking, he entered Gongzi Qi's room with Su Wu and palace maid Xiaoqian, looked around and turned to Su Wu and palace maid Xiaoqian and said, "You all go out." Su Wu and his palace maid Xiaoqian and the others withdrew and closed the door, leaving only Princess Ling alone in Gongzi Qi's room.

Gongziqi's room is very simple, there is a bed in front of it, and the quilt cover on the bed is very thin, and it is also very messy, obviously untidy. Princess Ling knew that Gongzi Qi was a person who loved neatness, so she must have been in a hurry when she went out today, so she walked to the bed and arranged the thin quilt cover on the bed into a long strip and placed it on the wall of the bed, and then folded the change of clothes in half and placed them neatly next to the pillow. Then he got up and walked to the desk next to the bed, on which there was a book, and the opening title was "The Currency System is Reformed and Sparse". Presumably he stayed up late last night, sitting down and watching and couldn't help but cry. Listening to the sound of rain outside the window, he stepped forward to open the window, the wind was cool in late autumn, looking at the drizzle outside the window, and he was always thinking about Gongzi Qi, at this time he was thinking about whether he brought an umbrella when it rained, whether he had eaten when he was hungry, and slowly walked back to the bed before he sat down and looked out the window at the drizzle.

The sky was drizzling, the breeze blew and felt the wind cold, and hurriedly braved the cool breeze and drizzle to rush back to his house and walk into the door. Su Wu stepped forward and looked at Gongzi Qi and said, "Childe, why did you only come back now?" Princess Ling has been waiting for you for a long time. After hearing this, Gongzi Qi was inevitably a little excited, and his heart was extremely happy, and he hurriedly said: "Lingling, where is she?" ”

"Princess Ling is waiting for you to come back in your room right now."

Gongzi Qi was overjoyed at this time, looked at Su Wu and nodded with a smile, walked out of the house door and entered the backyard to his door, hesitated for a while and pushed open the door and stepped into his room, stunned and said, "Lingling." Princess Ling stood and froze in place. Gongzi Qi hurriedly stepped forward to hold Princess Ling in his arms, Princess Ling's hands slowly stretched out from Gongzi Qi's waist to hug Gongzi Qi, tears blurred, snatched out of his eyes, and flowed down. Gongzi Qi let go of his hands, took out a towel from his arms to wipe away the tears on her face, and said, "Lingling, what's wrong?" ”

"You don't bring an umbrella, stay up late at night, you don't care about your body so much, what should you do if your body collapses?"

"I'm sorry, I made you feel distressed, learn to take care of yourself in the future, as long as you take care of your body, it is possible to take care of you, listen to you in the future, I will do whatever you say," Gongzi Qi said softly. Princess Ling's face showed a smile, Gongzi Qi looked at Princess Ling in front of him with a smile, and teased: "In the future, you are the only one, I will never dare to go west if you tell me to go east." ”

"Flim Tongue, ignore you," Princess Ling turned around and pretended to ignore Gongzi Qi. Gongzi Qi stood behind Princess Ling a little stupidly, Princess Ling turned around to look at Gongzi Qi's stupid appearance, stretched out her fingers and gently cocked his nostrils, feeling that the two of them were particularly teasing, teasing: "Pig head, stupid monkey," and looked at Gongzi Qi affectionately and said softly: "I've been busy for a long time, my body must be very tired, hurry up and rest for a while." ”

Gongzi Qi immediately agreed: "Okay," this "good" answer was very hearty, afraid that his slow answer would cause her to be unhappy, so he immediately took off his coat and lay on the bed and closed his eyes. Princess Ling sat next to him and covered the quilt for him, her lips pressed against his cheeks, feeling a little wet, then stood up, hung the wet clothes on the hanger and dried them in the wind, and continued to sit at the desk to watch the "Reform and Reform of the Currency System" written by Gongzi Qi all night. Looking out the window, the rain gradually became lighter, but it was still cool and breezy, and before walking to Gongzi Qi's bed, Gongzi Qi woke up and looked at Princess Ling and said, "Are you hungry?" ”

"Hungry, monkey."

Gongzi Qi put on his clothes and took Princess Ling's hand and walked on the street, after the rain, the sky was sunny and the wind was slightly cool, seeing that Princess Ling was thin, she took off her white coat and draped it on her, the color of this dress just matched this, but it was a little bigger, and the long sleeves dragged down and wide. Stroll in front of a barbecue stall and whisper, "You're hungry and buy some snacks to fill your stomach." Princess Ling looked at Gongzi Qi and just nodded, Gongzi Qi stepped forward and stood in front of the stall and chose a string of gluten, fungus liver, and squid to fry and bake, paid three yuan, and handed it to Princess Ling after the test, because Gongzi Qi understood what Princess Ling liked to eat, and chose a few skewers to her liking, Princess Ling took the skewers in Gongzi Qi's hand and looked at Gongzi Qi, and said, "You are also hungry, let's eat together." After finishing speaking, he stuffed the gluten into Gongzi Qi's hand, bit half of it and handed it to Princess Ling, who took the skewers in her hand and ate them slowly, and went to the noodle restaurant to call for a green vegetable egg noodle.

Gongzi Qi and Princess Ling climbed the mountain to watch the sunset, and inadvertently found a lonely temple in the shade of the trees, and looked down to see that there were blood stains in front of the temple gate. Gongzi Qi squatted down to carefully observe the bloodstains, and Princess Ling stayed quietly aside. Walk into the temple gate along this bloodstain, there are a lot of scattered feathers against the wall, this is obviously chicken blood, turn around and observe this straw, there are obviously people who have slept here, next to the amazing discovery of dead chickens, look at their throat, it is blood drained and die, pull out the feathers around its throat wound The throat is obviously torn open, the wound and the skin on the chicken are jet black, the blood flowing out of the surrounding area is also jet black, and the blood stains on the ground are bright red when they go out of the temple gate again. At this time, Childe Qipan sat on the ground and continued to ponder, closing his eyes. Princess Ling stood aside and asked, "What's wrong?" Childe Qi closed his eyes and said, "Don't bother, let me think about it, let me think about it." Princess Ling sat next to Gongzi Qi and propped up her chin, stretched out her head, and grinned slightly at Gongzi Qi.

Gongzi Qi suddenly opened his eyes and said in surprise: "Corpse poison." At this time, he suddenly remembered the national teacher Yin Sheng, and looked at the top of the mountain from afar, this quiet path is the road leading to the Sword Pavilion, and passing through the Sword Pavilion is the territory of Pakistan. Seeing this, Gongzi Qi at this time was like seeing the clouds and seeing the sky, making his sad face smile.

Princess Ling looked at Gongzi Qi and said curiously, "What's going on?" ”

"Here's the thing, the national teacher Yin Sheng led the Yin soldiers to attack the Chu State, and then led the army back to the Ba State, how can the rest of these Yin soldiers be afraid of Yang Qi to let them return to the territory of the Ba State? So he first led the army back to the territory of Pakistan, and then pretended to be a Taoist priest or dressed as a Taoist priest to drive the corpse to bring these Yin soldiers back to the territory of Pakistan, and stayed overnight during the day when they were on the way, and then entered this lonely temple to stay overnight when the day was about to dawn, so there was the scene we just saw, from which it can be inferred that there are still many catacombs in Chu State. ”

On the days when there was less gathering and more separation, it was time to part, and these armored soldiers stood in two rows to see off the princess. Princess Ling walked in the middle of these armor soldiers, looking back at Gongzi Qi behind her, Gongzi Qi followed and looked at Princess Ling in front of the carriage and said, "Go back first, after settling the affairs here in five days, return to the country of Tho to propose marriage to your father." Princess Ling looked back at Gongzi behind her and smiled, "Okay, I'll wait for you to come back in King Tho's palace." Princess Ling got into the carriage and left slowly, Gongzi Qi looked at the departing carriage and couldn't leave for a long time, several times such a parting, several times such a short time together, all carved deep traces in Gongzi Qi's heart, and they can never be erased.

Prince Qin walked into the main hall and stood under the main hall, Bai Qi and Gan Mao stood on both sides, and there were a few big red boxes in the middle, and there were big red flowers tied on the big boxes. Prince Qin stepped forward and looked at King Tho on the top of the main hall and said: "The prince of Qin is Yingdang, and he has come to send a gift to show his sincerity. ”

"The widow is still worried that the king of Qin will not agree to this matter, so choose a good day and auspicious day to arrange for the widow to send my little daughter to the Qin State to complete the marriage, and ask the prince to go back to arrange this matter." King Tho sat on the top of the main hall and was very pleasant.

"It's better to complete Qin Tho's eternal cultivation with his relatives, which is also my father's original intention."

"Okay, it's good to cultivate forever, this is what the people of Tho are looking forward to," Su He said with a smile.

Princess Ling returned to the palace of the kingdom of Tho, and looked at the front of her palace full of red, as if her own family was doing a happy event, and called a palace maid and asked, "What is going on?" There were doubts in my heart, I had to ask clearly, and my face looked a little unhappy, and these palace maids knelt in front of Princess Ling and lowered their heads without making a sound. Princess Ling turned to look at the palace maid Xiao Qian next to her and said, "Xiao Qian, can you tell me?" Princess Ling looked at the palace maid Xiaoqian next to her with a pleading look, her eyes a little moist.

"Princess, the king is going to marry you to the Qin Kingdom."

"What did you say?" Princess Ling's head was covered at that time, she was stunned, she couldn't believe it, believing that this sentence was true, she turned around and rushed out, broke into King Tho's palace, and stood in front of King Tho. King Tho sat at the desk and looked at Princess Ling and said, "Lingling." ”

"Father, you want to marry me to the Qin State, is this true?" Princess Ling didn't believe that his father would marry his daughter far away from Qin Guo regardless of her feelings, and after hearing this, she was inevitably a little sad, her eyes were hazy, and tears glistened in her eyes.

"It's true, my father is all for your good, but I haven't told you because I'm afraid that you will be sad after hearing this, and your father will be angry."

Princess Ling covered her mouth with one hand and ran out of King Tho's palace crying. King Tho stood up and walked out, looked at Princess Ling, who ran out of sadness, and said, "Lingling." Princess Ling locked herself in her boudoir, washed her face with tears all day long, and tortured herself by not eating and going on a hunger strike. King Tho is also worried about this matter. When he walked out to the door of Princess Ling's boudoir, he saw that the door of her room was closed, and no one was seen. The palace maids were waiting outside the door, and when they saw King Tho walking forward, they all knelt down and said, "Great King." ”

King Tho looked at these palace maids and said, "Lingling hasn't eaten yet?" ”

"King, the princess hasn't eaten for a day, and if you continue like this, the slave and maid are worried about the princess's body."

"The widow knows, you all go down," the palace maids all stood up and retreated, and King Tho stood in front of Princess Ling's door and said: "Lingling, I am your father, you are now resenting the widow, it is the widow's fault, and the widow should not hide it from you." The widow knows that you and Gongzi Qi have a very good relationship, but Gongzi Qi is a down-and-out wandering person, and he doesn't want to see you live like this, my father is very sad to see you like this, you know that my father is also doing this for your good, Qin is a strong country, and the other vassal states will be afraid of the protection of Qin and will not annex our Tho country, after you marry into Qin, you will be the crown princess, and you will be the future queen of Qin, and your father will be worthy of your deceased mother when he sees your Xinfu, you are very well-behaved, I hope you can understand your father's good intentions. ”
